AGE WRITES ITS STORY ON YOUR FACE Every man and woman admires an attractive, youthful complexion— and what a thrill to be both envied and admired! Correct cleansing beneath the skin surface is the basis of a lastingly youthful ap- pearance and "beneath-the-sur- face" dirt must first be scientifi- cally removed if the mask of age is to be lifted. Facial Youth Cleans- ing and Day Creams, together with Kathleen Court's Night Cream, really give the advantages of an expensive rejuvenating facial treat- ment. The Cleansing Cream—so soft and light—melting the instant it touches the skin, removes all beauty-destroying deep-pore accumulations. The Night Cream nourishes the skin during sleep, preventing tissue-sagging, double-chin, puffiness, lines round the eyes, near the mouth, and on the neck and throat. The Day Cream gives an exquisite finish to the freshened and mollified skin, and supplies the benefits of a vanishing, soothing and revivifying beautifier. Facial Youth Day Cream takes the...

THE FINANCIAL SEX ! I overheard this in a local jewel- &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; ler's. An intending bridegroom had &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; come in to look at some wedding &amp;nbsp; rings. The assistant produced sam- &amp;nbsp; pies ranging from 10/ to £2, and ex- &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; plained the difference between low &amp;nbsp; carat golds, white gold, and plati- &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; num. The purchaser, however, seem- &amp;nbsp; ed to be in some difficulty when it &amp;nbsp; came to making up his mind. "How &amp;nbsp; much are you prepared to pay?" &amp;nbsp; asked the assistant. "Well . . . my &amp;nbsp; fiancee only gave me 15/," was the &amp;nbsp; reply.—Mrs. K. Noake, 23 Beppo St, &amp;nbsp; Goulburn, N.S.W. &amp;nbsp;

SUPERSTITIOUS SYDNEY MRS. A. W. MCDONALD, of Gor- don, takes no heed of "under the ladder" superstitions. MLLE. GOLEY, of Coogee, says she has walked under many ladders, and has no fear of the "evil eye" of bad luck. MR. R. STRINGER, of North Syd- ney, is not a bit superstitious. He takes no heed of black cats or lad- ders. A few minutes before walking under this ladder he purchased two lottery tickets. BUT Mrs. E. Leal, of Artarmon, says she has never walked under a ladder in her life, and never will. SUPERSTITIONS still play a dominant part in the lives of many people, and remarkable precautions are taken to avert the threat of bad luck. Most of us profess to be amused at superstitions, but Sydney is crowded with people who keep up superstitious customs equally as ridiculous. A rough test last week revealed that only about four per cent. of one small Pitt Street section of the population of Sydney were not superstitiously inclined. The other 96 per cent. were. As laborers were bus...

&amp;nbsp; What's on Your Mind? In olden days it was a kind Of greeting then, "What's on your mind?" And some would answer, "Nothing much," Although there never has been such; For even in a rocking chair The mind is busy even there, &amp;nbsp; And even in the midst of men The mind is busy even then. What's on your mind? Some wrong desire? Yet all our deeds our thoughts inspire. You can't think crooked and go straight, In public smile, in private hate. In ev'ry move, in ev'ry deed, The feet will follow, mind will lead; And on your features men will find The record of what's on your mind.

THE BLEMISH ON A LOVELY FACE MAKE no mistake about it, Sydney is a magnificent city. Except perhaps Los Angeles there is no city of its size in the world that can com- pare for beauty of surroundings, for wealth, for lovely homes, for healthi- ness. And yet we have waited long enough for somebody of the eminence of the Lord Mayor to frankly open his eyes to the fact that the face of this lovely city is disfigured by revolting slums. Everybody knew it, of course. It is impossible to leave the city by tram or train in any direction without passing the fringes of the congested housing areas. Rotten terraces. Dank basements. Unsavory lanes. The Lord Mayor has inspected them all. Sydney was encircled with these London-like slums in the "boom" days of last century, before modern trans- port made it possible for suburbs to spread out into the healthy open areas of the North, West, and South. The slum terrace should have followed the horse omnibus into limbo. Any country that has slums and ...

LYRICS OF LIFE &amp;nbsp; THE BEST REMAIN &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; A wind blew through my garden &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; And bended here and there &amp;nbsp; A plant that was not brave enough &amp;nbsp; A wintry wind to bear. &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; A weakened limb was broken &amp;nbsp; From off my cherry tree &amp;nbsp; It was not strong enough to stand &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; The wind's adversity. &amp;nbsp; A wind blew through my garden, &amp;nbsp; Brought poverty and shame, &amp;nbsp; And there were many in that hour &amp;nbsp; Who loved me just the same. &amp;nbsp; The wind that brought the winter &amp;nbsp; Brought trouble in its train, &amp;nbsp; But in the garden of my friends &amp;nbsp; Now but the best remain. &amp;nbsp;

Old Friends Are Passing &amp;nbsp; Old friends are always passing on; We wake and find that one has gone, A friend so needed, and so near, We thought he always would be here, The same old friend for many a year. We never thought about it so, How much he meant, but now we know. We took him as we took the light That comes at morn, or stars at &amp;nbsp; night, &amp;nbsp; As though a blessing were a &amp;nbsp; right. &amp;nbsp; Why, he was here just yester &amp;nbsp; day— &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; Who ever thought he'd go away? &amp;nbsp; For, if we had, we might have &amp;nbsp; said &amp;nbsp; The word his kindness merited, &amp;nbsp; So futile whispered o'er the dead. &amp;nbsp;
